Under the FairTax, the Rebate ensures the "necessities of life" are not taxed if you're a US citizen or a legal resident, have a valid Social Security number, and want to sign up for the Rebate.
Judy,
What you say above is not true. You are misrepresenting the alleged "fairtax".
Under the alleged "fairtax", a 23 percent tax is added to the cost of food, clothing, medical needs, etc., and everyone who purchases these products when they go to the store pay the tax, and that includes poor working people. To alleviate the devastating increase in the cost of the necessities of life for poor working people, which the alleged fairtax adds to these products, qualified families are entitled to a monthly government check which can be used to pay the outrageous 23 percent tax on a rationed supply of necessities. This of course not only creates a new entitlement, but also makes poor working folks dependent upon government for a monthly check which can be used to pay the outrageous 23 percent tax on a rationed supply of necessities.
Under our Constitution's original tax plan, the necessities of life were not intended to be taxed, nor was there any monthly government check sent to the poor to be used to purchase the necessities of life.
Tell us, Judy, under the alleged fairtax and its family consumption entitlement, how many more “poor working people” would have a vested interest in voting for progressives, socialists and communists during election time who would promise to work to increase the family consumption entitlement? Is this not how Fifth Column members of Congress stay in power in our nation’s poorest voting districts ____ by offering their constituency free government cheese?
Tell us Judy, why are you so eager to create another entitlement, which would help our Fifth Column members in Congress to remain in power by promising our nation’s poor during each election time to alter the fairtax and enlarge the family consumption entitlement?

There is no better way to weaken, destroy and subjugate a prosperous and freedom loving country than by importing the world’s poverty stricken populations into that country.
